You wouldn't know a Nazi if you were looking right at him. You need to brush up on your history. By using this rhetoric you insult the soldiers who had to face the Nazis of WW2. No comparison.

Haha. Of course the national socialism proponents in the US are not out killing Jews, building Autobahns, nationalizing industry, etc. right now. They don't have the power. But if you don't think that Pat Buchanan and his friends would be totally up for doing some of (if not all of) the above, with a more modern, American spin on each, then you haven't been paying attention to Pat Buchanan or his fans on the FRinge.

The percentage listed under each image is the percent spent of total spending on Human Resources averaged over each term. Fiscal year data is displayed

I think I asked for a definition of what Human Resources was in the chart provided.

Your reply says human resources up front, but then begins mixing in social programs.

"Human Resources" is unclear in the chart title. If the chart was supposed to reflect "social spending" why not just title it as social spending?

To me, Human Resources could possibly include social spending, but would seem more logical for salaries.

That makes the information unclear, and therefore the intent questionable. If it is a combination of salaries and social programs then the data needs to be bifurcated to separate the two for a true picture of social spending as related to total outlays. Your response doesn't clarify that though, it uses "Human Resources" as in the chart, but switches to social programs for the rest.

Bush has no intention to stop the invasion. He will only encourage it. He hides behind double talk to defend his disastrous immigration policies. It is remarkable that politicians ignore their voters on this issue. Arnold seems to have the same problem. The license issue apparently will be revived in Jan. Too bad for California, McClintock was not elected.

Your argument that the great conservative Bush will appoint SC justices is bullsh**.

I understand you're not convinced Bush will pick "another Scalia" (or whomever is to your liking). But isn't it fair to say that Bush's SC (and other federal court) picks will be FAR more to you liking than would Howard Dean's or Dick Gephardt's?

The president swears an oath to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States. That makes the "one issue" the United States Constitution - "the supreme law of the land." That Constitution includes an amendment protecting our "liberty teeth" - the 2nd Amendment. But perhaps you can tell us "how [our RKBA will] be reclaimed under" any Republican president who ignores the Constitution he swore to preserve, protect, and defend? Is it magic? Something that automatically happens when a Republican is elected? "The world wonders"...

Once again, how will our RKBA be reclaimed under a liberal President?

That said, which branch of government is responsible for writing laws under the Constitution (one hint - each them also take a similar oath to uphold the Constitution).

I'm not willing to help the left whittle more of my 2nd amendment rights away by putting someone who would take over with a chainsaw in charge of the agencies responsible for implementing laws written by Congress.

so who are you voting for? are you going to do what happened in 2000 where Dean says, "I won the popular vote." and then hope for an electoral college win? What is your strategy and who do you think would be a better manager of the presidency?

Quite frankly, given the current state of the world, I question whether the paleo-conservative values are in this country's best interests.

Personally, if folks like Sam Francis are not outright racists, then they either are involved with racism's first cousin - or they have no problem with those that do. I will not support any candidate who holds to that sort of ideology.

I don't know about this particular chart, but I was told that other similar once including spending on Homeland Security as "social spending". Just goes to show you, how far some people go to try to present Bush in a bad light.

Paleo-conservatism has nothing to do with race. It has to do with the constitution.. my holding those values is neither racist or 'socialist' (whereever that label came from).. now how do define racism? What candidate has a 'racist' ideology? The last one I can recall is David Duke..

There's a whole lot of real conservatives who will vote for Bush simply because he is the lesser of two evils.

Amid out of control pork barrel spending, gay marriages, and runaway illegal immigration (soon to be rewarded by a Bush-sponsored amnesty program) we will hold our collective noses and go to the polls to cast our votes for someone who is a politician first and a conservative second.
